PART I
Item 1. Business
AAA Net Realty Fund X, Ltd. (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership")
is engaged in the business of acquiring, operating and holding real
properties for investment. The Partnership was organized to acquire
existing real estate income-producing properties as well as land
upon which such income-producing properties are to be constructed
("the Properties"), and to be leased to corporations. The
properties will not be leased to franchisees of such corporations
(unless a tenant corporation was to fail and in such event a
release may involve a franchisee lessee). American Asset Advisers
Management Corporation X (a Nebraska corporation) is the Managing
General Partner and H. Kerr Taylor is the Individual General
Partner.
Commencing September 17, 1992, the Registrant offered through
Securities America, Inc. up to 20,000 Units of limited partnership
interest (the "Units") at $1,000 per Unit with a minimum purchase
of 5 Units ($5,000) or 2 Units ($2,000) for an Individual
Retirement Account. At the termination of the offering on September
1, 1994 subscriptions had been received for 11,453.61 Units
($11,453,610). Limited partners are not required to make any
additional capital contributions.
The Units were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on
Registration Statement No. 33-47638 (the "Registration Statement").
The Partnership acquired two properties in 1993, four properties
in 1994, one property in 1995 and one property in 1996. Six of the
properties were purchased directly and two through joint ventures
at a total price of $9,951,519 including acquisition fees and
certain acquisition expenses. Generally, the Partnership leases
properties on a "net lease" basis to corporations having a net
worth at the time of acquisition in excess of $40,000,000.
All of the Partnership's business is generated from real estate
operations; therefore, presentation of industry segment information
is not applicable. During 1996, 76% of the Partnership's rental
income was received from four properties, each of which
individually contributed more than 15% of the total. During 1995,
77% of the Partnership's rental income was received from four
properties, each of which individually contributed more than 15% of
the total. During 1994, 82.5% of the Partnership's rental income
was received from three properties each of which individually
contributed more than 15% of the total. A breakdown of rental
income by tenant is included in Note 7 to the financial statements.
A further description of the Partnership's business is included in
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations included as Item 7 of this Form 10-K.
The Objectives of the Partnership are:
(1) to preserve and protect the limited partners' original capital
contributions by the free and clear "all cash"
acquisition of income-producing improved real estate properties;
(2) to produce long-term gains through appreciation of the
Partnership's properties;
(3) to provide the limited partners with quarterly cash distributions;
(4) to realize certain limited tax benefits, principally through
depreciation deductions so that taxable income of the
partnership will be offset to some extent by deductible
items, with the result that investors may receive distributions
generated from the Partnership's operation with a reduced income
tax liability associated with the distribution of income.
2
There can be no assurance that such objectives can be attained. It
is not an objective of the Partnership to shelter taxable income of
investors that is derived from sources other than the Partnership.
Properties
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership owned eight properties all
in fee simple. Four of these properties are located in Texas and
one each in Arizona, Georgia, Minnesota and Missouri.
Although the specific terms of each lease vary, a summary of the
terms of the leases are as follows:
The primary term of the leases ranges from ten to twenty years.
Four of the leases also provide for two to four five-year renewal
options. The leases are all "triple-net" leases whereby the
tenants are responsible for the property taxes, insurance and
operating costs. Annual rental income ranges from $51,756 to
$246,750. All of the leases provide for either percentage rents
based on sales in excess of certain amounts, periodic escalations
in the annual rental rates or both.
During 1996, four of the Partnership's leases each contributed more
than 15% of the Partnership's total rental income. Summarized as
follows are the significant items pertaining to each of these leases:

</TABLE>
All of the Partnership's leases specify a minimum amount of
insurance coverage required to be carried by each tenant.
Management of the Partnership believes that the insurance policies
required to be carried by the tenants will adequately cover the
replacement cost of the properties and any personal liability
losses which the tenants may sustain.
Property Management
Each property is managed by American Asset Advisers Realty
Corporation ("AAA"), an affiliate of the Managing General Partner.
Such management includes providing leasing services in connection
with identifying and qualifying prospective tenants, assisting in
the negotiation of the leases, providing quarterly financial
statements, receiving and depositing monthly lease payments,
periodic verification of tenants' payments of real estate taxes and
insurance coverage, and periodic inspection of properties and
tenants' sales records where applicable. The Managing General
Partner or such affiliates are reimbursed for administrative
services at cost. The tenants are responsible, at their expense,
for day-to day on-site management and maintenance of the
properties.
3
Financing - Borrowing Policies - No Leverage
The General Partners expect that the Partnership will incur no
indebtedness in connection with the operation of the properties.
However, in the exercise of their fiduciary duties, the General
Partners may elect to borrow funds on behalf of the Partnership,
but only if necessary in their judgment to avoid what would
otherwise be substantial adverse consequences to the Partnership.
All properties will be acquired on a debt-free basis.
The Partnership will not issue any senior securities nor will it
invest net proceeds of this offering in junior mortgages, junior
deeds of trust or similar obligations.
Sale of Properties
The General Partners expect that most of the properties will be
sold eight to twelve years after acquisition. The determination of
whether a particular property should be sold or otherwise disposed
of will be made after consideration of performance of the property
and market conditions and will depend, in part, on the economic
benefits of continued ownership. In deciding whether to sell
properties, the General Partners will consider factors such as
potential capital appreciation, cash flow and federal income tax
consequences. The General Partners or their affiliates anticipate
performing various substantial real estate brokerage functions in
connection with the sale of properties by the Partnership. The
Partnership will not purchase or lease any property from, or sell
or lease any property to, the General Partners or their affiliates.
Until September 1997, any net proceeds of sale of any property may,
at the election of the General Partners based upon their then
current evaluation of the real estate market conditions, either be
distributed to the partners or be reinvested in other properties.
Any properties in which net proceeds of the sale are reinvested
will be subject to the same acquisition guidelines as properties
initially acquired by the Partnership. Except under the limited
circumstances described in the preceding sentence, the net proceeds
of sale of properties will be distributed to the partners. In
addition, the Partnership will not reinvest any net proceeds of
sale unless sufficient proceeds are distributed to the limited
partners to pay any state or federal income taxes generated from
the sale (assuming the limited partners are taxable at a combined
federal and state marginal rate after such transactions of not more
than 38%).
In connection with the sale of a property owned by the Partnership,
purchase money obligations secured by mortgages may be taken as
partial payment. The terms of payment to the Partnership will be
affected by custom in the area in which the property being sold is
located and the then prevailing economic conditions. To the extent
the Partnership receives notes and property other than cash on
sales, such proceeds will not be included in net proceeds of sale
until and to the extent the notes or other property are actually
collected, sold, refinanced or otherwise liquidated. Therefore, the
distribution to the partners of the proceeds of a sale may be
delayed until the note or other property is collected at maturity,
sold, refinanced or otherwise converted to cash. The Partnership
may receive payments (cash and other property) in the year of sale
in an amount less than the full sales price and subsequent payments
may be spread over several years. The entire balance of the
principal may be a balloon payment due at maturity. For federal
income tax purposes, unless the Partnership elects otherwise it
will report the gain on such sale ratably as principal payments are
received under the installment method of accounting.
Competitive Conditions
The properties owned by the Partnership are leased to fast-food and
family-style restaurants, retail businesses and a medical facility.
These businesses face competition from similar establishments
within the surrounding areas.
At the time a property is sold or otherwise disposed of, the
Partnership will be in competition with others who are also seeking
buyers for their properties.
4
Employees
The overall management decisions of the Partnership are made by the
Managing General Partner, American Asset Advisers Management
Corporation X, which delegates certain day to day functions to the
officers of AAA, consultants and employees of AAA. The Partnership
itself has no employees.
Item 2. Properties
As of March 25, 1997, the Partnership owned eight properties in fee
simple, six directly and two through joint ventures with
affiliated entities. The properties are located in Texas, Arizona,
Georgia, Minnesota and Missouri. They are operated as retail
stores, as restaurants and as a medical facility.
Land - The Partnership's Property sites range from approximately
34,000 to 125,000 square feet depending upon building size and
local demographic factors. Sites purchased by the Partnership are
in high traffic corridors and have been reviewed for traffic and
demographic pattern and history.
Buildings - The buildings are all single tenant and are generally
rectangular. They are positioned for good exposure to traffic flows
and are constructed from various combinations of stucco, steel,
wood, brick and tile. Buildings range from approximately 2,300 to
15,000 square feet. Buildings are suitable for possible conversion
to other uses, although modifications may be required prior to use
for other operations. There are no plans for renovation or
improvements.
Leases - Tenants are companies whose net worth exceeds a minimum of
$40,000,000. Tenants are diversified by business type and are
represented by the following types of business: automotive,
consumer electronics, consumer entertainment, consumer retail, full
service restaurants, fast food restaurants and medical
facilities.
Geographic Location - The properties are located within major
metropolitan areas (S.M.S.A.) with populations that exceed 250,000.
A total of $9,951,519 has been invested in properties as of
December 31, 1996, for the Partnership. This includes land,
building and acquisition costs. A further description of the
Partnership properties, including acquisition fees and certain
acquisition expenses, is included in Item 1 and in Schedule
III-Real Estate Owned and Accumulated Depreciation of this Form
10-K.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Partnership does not have any material legal proceedings
pending.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, no matter was
submitted to a vote of security holders through the solicitation of
proxies or otherwise.

PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related
Stockholder Matters
As of March 25, 1997, 728 limited partners had subscribed for
11,453.61 Units. No established public trading market currently
exists for the Units.
For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 the
Partnership paid cash distributions to the Limited Partners (LPs)
in the amount of $916,861, $879,065 and $515,254, respectively. The
General Partners (GPs) received distributions of $3,600, $4,100
and $2,650, respectively. The distributions were paid entirely from
the operating profits of the Partnership.
A summary of the distributions by quarter is as follows:
Quarter 1996 1995
Ended GPs LPs GPs LPs
March 31 $ 900 $ 229,072 $ 900 $ 206,165
June 30 $ 900 $ 229,072 $ 900 $ 220,483
September 30 $ 900 $ 229,072 $ 1,700 $ 223,345
December 31 $ 900 $ 229,645 $ 600 $ 229,072
The Partnership intends to continue the payment of quarterly
distributions. There are currently no material legal restrictions
that would limit the Partnership's ability to pay distributions.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Partnerships
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Partnership was organized on April 15, 1992, to acquire, on a
debt-free basis, existing and newly constructed commercial
properties located in the continental United States and
particularly in the Southwest, to lease these properties to tenants
under generally "triple net" leases, to hold the properties with
the expectation of equity appreciation and eventually to resell the
properties.
The Partnership's overall investment objectives are to acquire
properties that offer investors the potential for (i) preservation
and protection of the Partnership's capital; (ii) partially
tax-deferred cash distributions from operations; and (iii)
long-term capital gains through appreciation in value of the
Partnership's properties realized upon sale.
6
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On September 17, 1992, the Partnership commenced an offering to the
public of up to $20,000,000 (20,000 Units) of limited partnership
units. The proceeds of the offering, rental income from the
Partnership's properties and interest income are the Partnership's
source of capital. The Partnership closed its offering on September
1, 1994 having raised $11,453,610. Limited partners are not
required to make any additional capital contributions.
The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring properties for
all cash and leasing them under net leases to corporations
minimizes the Partnership's operating expenses. The General
Partners believe that net rental income from the leases will
generate cash flow in excess of Partnership operating expenses.
Since the leases generally have initial or remaining terms of 10 to
20 years and provide for specified rental increases in excess of
the initial base rent, it is anticipated that Partnership income
will increase over time. In addition, because of low operating
expenses and ongoing cash flow, the General Partners do not believe
that large working capital reserves are necessary at this time.
Because all leases of the Partnership's properties are on a net-lease
basis, it is not anticipated that a large reserve for
maintenance and repairs will be necessary. The Partnership intends
to distribute a significant portion of its cash available for
distribution unless it becomes necessary to maintain additional
reserves.
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had acquired eight
properties and had invested $9,951,519, including certain
acquisition expenses related to the Partnership's investment in
these properties. These expenditures resulted in a corresponding
decrease in the Partnership's liquidity.
The Partnership has determined that, beginning on December 1, 1993
it inadvertently failed to update its then outstanding prospectus
with current information as required by Section 10 (a) (3) of the
Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "33 Act") and by the
standard undertakings made by the Partnership in its amended
registration statement filed pursuant to the '33 Act. However, the
Partnership did publicly disclose such information in its Form 8-K,
10-Q and 10-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As a result of the above information, the Partnership has been
advised that it has a contingent liability to investors for
rescission rights or damages which, at a maximum, would not exceed
approximately $5.5 million. This would result in a decrease in the
Partnership's liquidity. Management anticipates that rescissions,
if any, will not be material.
The Partnership made cash distributions from operations to the
limited partners during each quarter of 1996 and 1995, distributing
a total of $916,861 and $879,065 respectively to the limited
partners.
Inflation has had very little effect on income from operations.
Management expects that increases in store sales volumes due to
inflation as well as increases in the Consumer Price Index (C.P.I.)
may contribute to capital appreciation of the Partnership
properties. These factors, however, also may have an adverse
impact on the operating margins of the tenants of the properties.
7
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Years Ended December 31, 1996, and 1995:
The Partnership acquired its eighth property in September 1996 for
$662,242. Rental income from this property contributed to an
increase in income from the Partnership's real estate activities to
$1,011,429 in 1996 from $983,408 in 1995. Four of the eight
properties owned by the Partnership as of December 31, 1996
contributed 76% of the Partnership's total rental income for 1996
and each contributed over 15% of the rental income. Interest
income declined from $46,545 to $25,482 as funds which had been
held in short term investments were used to acquire real estate
properties. The Partnership's operating expenses remained
unchanged from 1995. Net income increased to $737,212 from $731,773.
Years Ended December 31, 1995, and 1994:
The Partnership acquired its seventh property in January 1995 for
$1,477,838. Rental income from this property and from four
properties which were acquired in 1994 contributed to an increase
in income from the Partnership's real estate activities to $983,408
in 1995 from $531,694 in 1994. Four of the seven properties owned
by the Partnership as of December 31, 1995 contributed 77% of the
Partnership's total rental income for 1995 and each contributed
over 15% of the rental income. Interest income declined from
$135,104 to $46,545 as funds which had been held in short term
investments were used to acquire real estate properties. The
Partnership's increased activity also resulted in a $45,950
increase in operating expenses from 1994. Net income increased to
$731,773 from $472,659.
In 1995, the Partnership placed $14,250 in escrow for an
International House of Pancakes property (IHOP) subject to the
achievement of certain conditions. The agreement to acquire the
property was terminated in February 1996 because the environmental
conditions were not met to the satisfaction of all the parties to
the transaction. The escrow deposit will be refunded to the
Partnership. Accordingly, these funds are reflected in the
financial statements as an account receivable.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
AAA Net Realty Fund X, Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of AAA Net Realty
Fund X, Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
statements of operations, partnership equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. Our
audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the
Index. These financial statements and Financial Statement Schedule
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements
and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of AAA Net Realty Fund X,
Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
AAA Net Realty Fund X, Ltd. ("the Partnership") is a limited
partnership formed April 15, 1992, under the laws of the State
of Nebraska. The Partnership commenced operations as of
September 17, 1992. American Asset Advisers Management
Corporation X (a Nebraska corporation) is the Managing General
Partner and H. Kerr Taylor is the Individual General Partner.
An aggregate of 20,000 Units were offered at a $1,000 maximum
offering price per Unit. The Partnership closed its offering on
September 1, 1994 having received capital contributions for
11,453.61 Units ($11,453,610).
The Partnership was formed to acquire commercial properties for
cash. The Partnership will own, lease, operate, manage and
eventually sell the properties. The selection, acquisition and
supervision of the operations of the properties is managed by
American Asset Advisers Realty Corporation ("AAA"), a related
party.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial records of the Partnership are maintained on the
accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when
earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership
considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand
deposits at commercial banks and money market funds.
PROPERTY
Property is leased to others on a net lease basis whereby all
operating expenses related to the properties, including property
taxes, insurance and common area maintenance are the
responsibility of the tenant. The leases are accounted for under
the operating lease method or the direct financing lease method.
Under the operating lease method, the properties are recorded
at cost. Rental income is recognized ratably over the life of
the lease and depreciation is charged based upon the estimated
useful life of the property. Under the direct financing lease
method, the properties are recorded at their net investment (see
Note 5). Unearned income is deferred and amortized to income
over the life of the lease so as to produce a constant periodic
rate of return.
The Partnership's lease agreements do not provide for contingent
rentals.
F-9
The Partnership obtains an appraisal on each property prior to
a property's acquisition and also performs an annual valuation
update to evaluate potential impairment for each property for
which an appraisal is older than twelve months. This valuation
is based on capitalization of income for each property, a review
of current market conditions and any significant events or
factors which would indicate a potential impairment to the value
of a property.
INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES
The Partnership's interest in joint ventures are accounted for
under the equity method whereby the Partnership's investment is
increased or decreased by its share of earnings or losses in the
joint ventures and also decreased by any distributions.
DEPRECIATION
Buildings are depreciated using the straight-line method over
estimated useful lives ranging from 31.5 to 39 years.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Organization costs incurred in the formation of the Partnership
are amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
SYNDICATION COSTS
Syndication costs incurred in the raising of capital through the
sale of units are treated as a reduction of partnership equity.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
No cash was paid for income taxes or interest during 1996, 1995 or 1994.
INCOME TAXES
All income and expense items flow through to the partners for
tax purposes. Consequently, no provision for federal or state
income taxes is provided in the accompanying financial statements.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying value of financial instruments, consisting of
cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and liabilities
approximate their fair value.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
F-10
2. PARTNERSHIP EQUITY
The Managing General Partner, American Asset Advisers Management
Corporation X, and the Individual General Partner, H. Kerr
Taylor, have made capital contributions in the amounts of $990
and $10, respectively. All other contributions have been made
by the limited partners. The General Partners shall not be
obligated to make any other contributions to the capital of the
Partnership, except that, in the event that the General Partners
have negative balances in their capital accounts after
dissolution and winding up of, or withdrawal from, the
Partnership, the General Partners will contribute to the
Partnership an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit
balances in their capital accounts or 1.01% of the total capital
contributions of the limited partners over the amount previously
contributed by the General Partners.
3. ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
All income, profits, gains and losses of the Partnership for
each fiscal year, other than any gain or loss realized upon the
sale, exchange or other disposition of any of the Partnership's
properties, shall be allocated as follows: (a) net loss shall
be allocated 99% to the limited partners, .99% to the Managing
General Partner and .01% to the Individual General Partner; and
(b) net income will be allocated first in the ratio, and to the
extent, net cash flow is distributed to the partners for such
year and any additional income for such year will be allocated
99% to the limited partners, 1% to the General Partners.
For income tax purposes, the gain realized upon the sale,
exchange or other disposition of any property will be allocated
as follows:
(a) first, to and among the partners in an amount equal to the
negative balances in their respective capital accounts (pro rata
based on the relative amounts of such negative balances).
(b) then, to each limited partner until the balance in such
limited partner's capital account equals the amount to be
distributed to such limited partner in the first tier of
distributions of net proceeds of sale.
(c) then, to the General Partners, until the balance in their
capital accounts equals the amounts to be distributed to the
General Partners in the second tier of distributions of net
proceeds of sale.
(d) then 94% to the limited partners and 6% to the General
Partners, and
(e) thereafter, the partners shall be allocated gain or loss in
order to meet Treasury Regulations regarding qualified income
offset requirements.
Any loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of any
property shall be allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1%
to the General Partners.

extends for twenty years, however the tenant has the option
to renew the lease for two additional terms of five years
each. The lease has provisions for an escalation in the rent
after the fifth, tenth, and fifteenth years of the lease.
The Partnership recorded $22,558 of income from Just For Feet

11. CONTINGENCY
The Partnership has determined that, beginning on December 1,
1993 it inadvertently failed to update its then outstanding
prospectus with current information as required by Section 10
(a) (3) of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "33 Act")
and by the standard undertakings made by the Partnership in its
amended registration statement filed pursuant to the '33 Act.
However, the Partnership did publicly disclose such information
in its Form 8-K, 10-Q and 10-K filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
As a result of the above information, the Partnership has been
advised that it has a contingent liability to investors for
rescission rights or damages which, at a maximum, would not
exceed approximately $5.5 million. Management anticipates that
rescissions, if any, will not be material.
